    Got to Paris this morning but my pack did not

    I will report back when I get the pack. In reality I'm not overly surprised with this, the incredible amount of people travelling at any given time is increasing exponentially. Of course it sucks when it happen to us, but oh well. I'm confident that the pack and I will reunite, then I will get...

    Got to Paris this morning but my pack did not

    That is what the person on the counter said, that this is happening often. They gave me a little care package with tooth paste, toothbrush and a few small items like that. So if they have a care package that say samething. Having said that, I have used air canada for years and never had an...

    I'm in a bit of a pickle with flights

    I'm arriving to Paris CDG terminal 2A at 8:45am on September 17th from Toronto, I made reservation with Easyjet for 10:55am terminal 2D to Biarritz. With a little more than 2 hours I thought I would have enough time to do the transfer. For what I read here it would appear that I won't make the...

    Can I get there from here??

    I'm leaving on September 16th and I chose to fly to Paris from Toronto and then take the train which is right at the CDG airport, then transfer at Bayonne to St. Jean... On the way back I'm flying from Madrid to Toronto... This may not be the most direct way but is the one I'm taking, mostly...

    Getting to Madrid and staying there for a post-camino visit

    Thanks, that is a good tip.... I was at the Prado almost 40 years ago, things have change some since and I really wanted to go back at some point... I was single then and care free, now with a wife I love, 3 kids and 4 grandkids so things have changed some...

    Getting to Madrid and staying there for a post-camino visit

    Good info here, thanks guys. I'm flying back home from Barajas after my Camino, I was wandering how to get from Santiago to Madrid. I was also wanting to stay in Madrid for a day or two as I'm interested in visiting El Prado and if time permits The Escorial, Valle de los Caidos. Any tips...

    Toronto to St Jean Pied de Port

    Thanks SY, this also helps me as I did not realize it would take that long through customs. Chris

    Most Direct and cheapest way to St. Jean from Toronto

    Congrats on having your flights book, that is when the Camino trip becomes real. I would not worry too much about language barriers even though sometimes they could be a challenge, France and Spain are countries with a very large tourist industry, there will be most time someone that speaks...
